Two weeks in Loft L

There are so many wonderful things to say about this little space. My husband and I stayed there for two weeks. I can appreciate the firmness of the bed and the pillow. We were right under a mile away from the center, or the cathedral. For people who don’t like to walk this might be a problem, but my husband and I were committed to walking and getting some steps in. It really was not that big of a deal, and it was good for all of the eating that we did. Upon arrival, I learned that the cemetery is about a block away, maybe a little less. Because the cemetery is so close, we had funeral possessions on two occasions. The loft room is right in front of the street, so we did get some street noise, but it’s a quiet part of the neighborhood so overall I was able to sleep through anything. We also use white noise to block any noise out. But overall, it was probably quieter than it would be staying by the center town. Because we were there for two weeks, we were offered free cleaning service. That was absolutely helpful. What was also helpful was the fact that there was a grocery store, a pharmacy, and a great breakfast place within walking distance.

Beautiful Condo in Oaxaca

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful and comfortable condo. It is a 2 bedroom place with a very comfortable living room, dining room, kitchen and 2 bathrooms. As a bonus, it also had 2 outdoor spaces. One of our favorite things about this place was walking down to the hotel in the morning for breakfast. The breakfast is just delicious and so many options to chose from. The staff is so friendly and accommodating. They make you feel so comfortable and welcome and will help you with any planning. Truly a wonderful and special place.

Gorgeous house in a fantastic location

Five of us spent a week in this truly beautiful, comfortable house - two couples and a single adult. The house is beautifully laid out on multiple levels, with terraces, art and plantings everywhere. We didn't cook, but the kitchen is nicely designed. Easy walking distance to the main cathedral/Oaxacan culture museum, restaurants, shopping, and it overlooks the Botanic Gardens. Other enhancements include a sweet dog-like cat, daily (weekday) cleaning service, and a good sound system linked to audio streaming (thank you Alexa!). There was lots of drinking water on hand, and the lovely housekeepers kept the handblown beakers in each bedroom filled.This property is not ideal for someone with mobility challenges. Although there is a bedroom on the ground floor, it's a step down and then up to the bathroom (the owners may rectify this). There are lots of lovely/comfortable spaces to hang out in on the ground floor, but other bedrooms, vistas and terraces are up stairs. The very attractive small pool is difficult to get in and out of, though this too could be addressed fairly easily.A few small drawbacks: shower water flow is pretty minimal (a general Oaxacan City challenge) and takes time to heat up. There is a double security system, which is great, but it's a bit nervous-making to have to punch in a 4-digit code to exit (what if there were an emergency?) Extra beds in 2 rooms, make those spaces a bit tight. Small things aside though, this is a spectacular property!

A gem of a place

It's close walking distance to many tourist attractions and there is a lovely brewpub across the street. The house is beautiful but one should be aware of its quirks. The main bedroom on the first floor has its own bathroom but other bedrooms upstairs do not. You have to walk across the courtyard to get to the bathrooms. Did not bother me but could be a challenge for some. There is a nightclub on the block that I could hear one but did not bother me. I did not need to use earplugs.

Excellent Stay in Oaxaca Centro!

We had an amazing time here! The apartment is very close to food and shops and museums. Being set back from the street a little means you’re close to all the action of Oaxaca center at night but can still get good sleep without too much noise. The apartment was very clean and suited our needs perfectly!

Great apartment in a great location!

I absolutely loved my stay! As soon as I walked in i was very pleased. Check in was fast and easy. The place was very clean and had everything I needed including coffee. The bed was comfortable. The room temperature was great as well. The neighborhood was very safe with a very l nice garden down the street where you will see lots of activities. During the day I walked everywhere and back. But at night I always took a cab back. The only con was the wifi was slow. Luckily there are great places to work out of near by. Regardless of that. I would comeback here again and again. Thank you for your hospitality and your constant communication.
